Chapter 144: A Flash of Inspiration

As the naked group walked towards the room that Carrie’s premature baby was being cared for in Bjorn was busily trying to come up with names for it and suggesting those names to Jessie. Jessie started to feel a little bit agitated by all these suggestions so Bjorn stopped speaking and just kept his suggestions to himself. He had no wish to upset his girlfriend again now that she seemed to be ‘his friend’ once more. Jessie looked at Bjorn after he had been silent for a few moments then apologised for being so touchy about things again.

“I’m sorry, Bjorn” she said softly. “This is actually more your baby than it is mine and it’s you that should be coming up with a name and not me. You just keep suggesting whatever names you like and I am sure something will come up that seems to stick and I know it will be a lovely name and just perfect for your baby.”

Bjorn recoiled immediately at the term ‘your baby’ and said so at once.

“Don’t say that. Don’t you ever say that again. The baby is OUR baby. Carrie has given it to us as her last dying wish. Don’t you EVER call that child ‘my baby’ again!”

Jessie Harper quickly pulled away from Bjorn at the suddenness of his little flare up. She pulled away and apologised but did not return to his side. Instead she pulled in next to her mother again as they headed for the doors that would lead them to this little baby born a few months before its time.

As they approached those doors two nurses came out and ushered them all in very quietly to a softly lit room. It took a moment for everyone’s eyes to adjust to this low light set to cause as little discomfort to the baby’s still developing eyes and neural systems. The naked group were then led over to a large perspex box at the far end of the room. Jessie was still with her mother with Bjorn following on a little way behind and just kicking himself for his little outburst.

“How stupid can a guy get!” Bjorn thought to himself then started wondering how long it was going to take this time to get Jessie back on side again. He was feeling quite forlorn about all this until he saw his baby - his baby that still did not have a name yet.

The first thing he noticed about the baby in that perspex incubator was that it looked just as naked as he was ... well almost naked - apart from an over-sized diaper around its loins.

“Well, you’re in good company, little daughter of mine” Bjorn said to himself.

Bjorn then quickly looked around at the other six naked bodies standing about that incubating machine. He took particular note of the gorgeous body of his naked girlfriend and said in a low whisper to his baby, “Well, if you grow up to be as good looking as your step-mom, or your real mom for that matter, then you will be doing well. And who knows, you might even be able to sing too. You would be our own little singing angel.”
